Rage, Rage against the dying of the light. Oppose all reactionary billionaires, racists, sexists, homophobes & all the benighted enemies of democracy, social justice & social progress. Religious camouflage is also no defence for undermining human rights.

In 1898 it was a school. Near Greenwich Park. Given the size of the frontage, the separate entrances for boys and girls & infants was, is and forever will be utterly ridiculous.

On the Thames near Southwark Bridge. The "Little Ship" refers of course to the small boat & ship armada which helped the Royal Navy extract British & French troops from the Dunkirk Beaches in 1940.

Rochester Cathedral, founded in 604. Charles Dickens wanted to be buried in its Churchyard but fame dragged him away & dropped him in Poet's Corner in Westminster Abbey.

The arrival of the Huguenots in England was the best thing for the Industrial Revolution since sliced bread. They took over Berlin too. France's self inflicted injury!
... and Meyerbeer's March from Les Huguenots (Opera) is excellent.
